The success which has attended the technique and the natural taste evinced in the costumes designed by Mrs M. A.

When doubtful send direct to Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, enclosing the price, three shillings for one box, or sixteen and six for six boxes, post free. They cure anaemia, debility, neuralgia, rheumatism, indigestion, liver and kidney troubles, St. Vitus’ dance, rickets, skin diseases, paralysis, etc. They are not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could Injure the most delicate lady or child.
